Abstract

The purpose of this work was to examine the impact of total quality management (TQM) practices on attitudes related to employee productivity, such as job participation, job satisfaction, professional satisfaction, and organizational commitment of employees. of the industrial sector of Tungurahua. The paper proposes and tests 4 hypotheses about the relationship between KM practices and work-related attitude. The results indicate that training and education have a significant positive effect on labor participation, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment. Empowerment and teamwork significantly improve labor participation, job satisfaction, career satisfaction, and organizational commitment. Continuous improvement and problem prevention significantly improve job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Customer focus does not contribute to job engagement, job satisfaction, career satisfaction, or organizational commitment. The study was unable to assess the broader dimensions of CG practices. It is concluded that, managers should be aware that KM practices have a positive effect on employees' work-related attitudes (such as job participation, job satisfaction, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment).
